Back Door Deep Breaths Face Facial Expression Facial Nerves Fear Heartbeat Hot Mask Mile A Minute Naked Person Public Speaking Three Times Trash
SavedByGrace asked: I had to give a small two line speech this past weekend to roughly 40 people. My insides started to grow hot as I waited my turn. My heartbeat was going a mile a minute and I started to take deep breaths.
I was about to faint once again but this time I tried to talk myself out of it. My face started to twitch and I thought I would go down to the floor. It was my turn finally and I blurted out what I needed to say as I tried to mask the ridiculous facial expression that the nerves in my face were causing.
I dry heaved three times before I realized that I was going to throw up. I exited through the back door and throw up in an available trash can. TWICE
I need to shake this fear that I have had since high school…any suggestions? The “visualize” a naked person is not going to cut it.

Audience Deep Breaths Losing Sleep Phobia Public Speaking Sleep Speaking Engagement Stomach
betty asked:
If suggestions such as “picture the audience naked,” “keep your eyes focused on the back wall,” “take deep breaths all day,” etc. don’t work, are there any other alternatives if public speaking is a part of your life? If a person is losing sleep and getting sick to their stomach a week before the speaking engagement, how do they overcome that? Is it possible?
